Another IWA official, Roya Musavi, asked people to share with them evidence and credible information of corruption.

“We are markingthe occasion to inform people there is a day devoted to efforts against corruption. On this day, we should raise a voice and join hands against graft,” she added.

Abdullah Taj, a resident of Kabul, also signed the IWA banner.He said government leaders had no intention to curb corruption. People should, therefore, press the rulers to do more to banish graft, he maintained.

Ahmad Sharif, another young man, also promised to join the campaign, accusing senior government officials of involvement in the menace. He believed corruption would continue as long as unqualified people acted as ministers.
